Szenen aus Goethes Faust (Concerted Performance)

While Goethe’s classicism aimed at a whole consisting of particles in accordance with a higher plan, where the illumination of the heart’s reason is heeded and Faust seeks to understand “what holds the world together in its essence”, romanticism cultivated a sense for surprising, illogical turns, delighting in dark, mystical spheres and wandering poetic landscapes.
